Coulrophobia




It is defined as a persistent, abnormal, and unwarranted fear of clowns 

It is very common in children, but in some cases it persists in adolescents and adults. Those who suffer from this phobia recognize that what scares them most is the excessive makeup, nose, bright red hair and strange, which hides his true identity. Often this fear is acquired after having a bad experience with clowns during childhood, or seeing the portrait of a sinister clown (eg, It by Stephen King, Batman or Joker). Not all sufferers experience the same degree of coulrophobia: some feel genuine panic, in others it is more of a suspicion.
